I learned about Aaron in college in a communication class when we talked about the open access and open source movements. I didn’t know he had anything to do with Reddit or Internet Archive until years later. Reddit’s vision lately seems really backward from what Swartz wanted. How was he ever friends with Steve Huffman? Was Huffman always such an insensitive tyrant or did he only become so since becoming CEO? Even Ohanian. What did he see in Huffman? I’ve admired Ohanian for his advocacy on mental health, parental leave, and racial equality. Huffman seems to only care about himself. It’s just hard for me to imagine a time where thoughtful people like Swartz or Ohanian would have the time of day for someone like Huffman. Of course, I’m not sure how much Ohanian works on Reddit lately, but it’s a shame he’s allowed these draconian changes to happen through Huffman and his cronies.
